bucks. it's crazy. "
slipping into the store, he
held the door for daniel to
step in, before letting go.
it was quiet, hardly anyone
inside. sean would've went
just for the air-con alone.
" ah, i see the kitty... "
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀“ she would never scratch
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀me , she loves me . ”
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀tell that to the previous
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀scratches from said cat .
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀hurrying alongside sean ,
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀fanning himself with his
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀hand .
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀“ i’ll try . ”
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀
sean chuckled, patting
daniel on the back.
" just avoid the claws. i
don't wanna add a cat
scratch to the sunburn. "
stepping outside, sean
locked the door, making
his way alongside daniel
to the main street.
" yeah, of course. just ...
nothing too expensive. "
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀“ okay . . . only so i can
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀play with the cat . ”
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀his favourite part about
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀that store ; the cat .
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀though he’s not sure the
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀cat likes him back .
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀“ and can i pick some -
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀thing out too ? ”
⠀⠀
head tilt, not entirely
sure about what their
day looked like.
" i mean ... i kinda feel
like heading over to the
record store. see if they
have anything good in. "
a small shrug.
" and it would keep you
out of the sun .. "
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀dismissive grumbling ; at
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀least that was out of the
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀way .
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀feeling less cranky now .
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀“ so , what are we doing
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀today ? i’m bored . ”
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀
" oh, yeah. super gross. "
sean teased, a slight hint of
a grin tugging at his mouth.
" it's cool, though. i love you,
too. even when you're a brat. "
he's teasing him, of course. a
little nudge given to him.
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀so what ? you guys have a
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀bunch of money . we just
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀did what we had to .
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀and if you don’t get lost ,
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀the same will happen to
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀you . or worse .
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀he knows . . . he does . as
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀much as he whines and
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀complains ; he would be
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀lost without sean .
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀he squints , hand on his
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀head to fix his hair .
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀“ that’s gross . . . sure . ”
⠀⠀ ⠀⠀
sean didn't blame daniel ..
the most important thing
to him was that they were
still together.
some days could be tough,
but he was thankful to have
them, good or bad. they had
both fought for it.
" good, " he gave his hair a
ruffle, " i know you love me. "
